🏏England tour of India 2025: 1st ODI: 6/2/2025 at 1:30 PM IST🏏 - Page 27

Axar Patel has been speaking to the host broadcaster: "I knew from before [about batting at No. 5] to keep left-right combo going. Fast bowlers' balls were coming on to the bat, so we switched to spin. But even spinners were being hit, so credit to them for starting well. [On the three spinners] We knew if we can stick to our lines and lengths, we could make a comeback given they attack the bowlers. Our plan was to make them err as they go for their shots. When we were bowling, the ball was stopping a bit. Their spinners varied the pace well, if our spinners had done the same, we would have got more turn. [On partnership with Gill] Talk was about play as it comes and not think much. As we played on, we targeted the bowlers and spoke about taking it long because it was not easy for a new batter."

Words words words words words words

Jos Buttler: Disappointed not to win the game. We got off to a fantastic start in the powerplay but we lost wickets. Another 40-50 runs could have been handy with the way the wicket played towards the end. The guys started really well. The game was in the balance at that point, but credit to Shreyas Iyer to build that partnership. We have to play better for longer.

Rohit Sharma: Pretty happy. We all knew we are playing this format after a long time. I thought right from the beginning we played as per expectation. They did start well but the way we came back was superb. We wanted a leftie in the middle. It is as simple as that. We know they will spin it back into the left-handers so we wanted a leftie. Gill and Axar batted brilliantly out in the middle. Nothing specific. Overall as a team I just want us as a team to keep doing the right things as much as possible

Baki sab toh thik hai. Bt aapka form wapas kab ayega sharma ji?

Nothing against Gill

But Jadeja should have got POTM Award

He took 3 wickets with the best economy aur koyi bowler uske aas pass bhi nahi tha.

Wahi toh

But giving Batsman more importance has always been there.
